Chapter 2905: Entering the Ghost Realm
t. " Lu Xia Tian explained, "But if Brother Luo asks, just say you snatched them yourself, so he doesn't feel uncomfortable."“How could that be” Luo Qing cried urgently, This was a gift from Lu Xia Ti...“Master!” A sword light flashed, and the lotus avatar had already landed in front of Lu Xiaoteng. Extending his palm, he supported the Xuezu Centipede demon and the four-armed Sea Ape’s primordial spirit, causing them to respectively fly towards Lu Xiaoteng.
These two powerful demon cultivators' souls were filled with terror at this moment. They never expected that the battle between Lu Xiaottian and Yuanshi Jianmo would become the end of their cultivation journey. Seeing that Yuanshi Jianmo was in a bad situation, the two of them began to leave early, but no one expected that Lu Xiaottian had no intention of letting them go.
Several Mahayana cultivators joined forces to pursue them, not only the two of them, but also their underlings. As long as they were brought to the Demon Sea, they were wiped out completely. This was unlike Lu Xiaoteng's previous way of doing things.

Lu Xiaoxian stretched out his palm and several Sumeru rings flew towards the lotus flower clones. Naturally, these were left behind by Ice Flame Giant Jiao, Yao Hou, Four-Eyed Golden Sunbird and other Great Ascension demonic cultivators. Most of the spiritual materials were no longer needed for Lu Xiaoxian to personally refine pills; he had entrusted them to Hong Yue, hoping that under the accumulation of a large number of high-grade spiritual materials, Hong Yue could break through her pill refining realm as soon as possible.
As for the vast amount of spiritual crystals, they will naturally be given to the lotus avatar, allowing it to make qualitative improvements in its cultivation at the second dantian.
“The Snow Foot Centipede Demon, the Four-Armed Sea Ape, and even some of their clan’s savings are all in my hands. Right now, the spirit crystals I control are almost enough to cultivate the second dantian to its peak.” The lotus avatar said.

> "The amount of energy required to cultivate this second dantian technique varies from person to person. Your situation is different from mine. As you progress, the cost of fully opening up a second dantian may be far greater than what I experienced."
Lu Xiaotian shook his head. The lotus avatar was ultimately a product of後天 cultivation, not something naturally formed. In the early stages of training, some techniques might be similar to his main body. However, later on, differences would likely become increasingly apparent. After his battle with Yuan Shi Jian Mo, Lu Xiaotian's growth wasn't just in strength, but also in perspective.
"Afterwards, you will go to the Realm of True Wood and bring out Yu Xia Qiao."
The lotus avatar nodded in agreement. Lu Xia Tian asked about other matters, and through the lotus avatar, learned that Kong Ye and the great bodhisattva puppet had both returned to the Buddhist sect. The Heaven-Piercing Demon Monarch had also temporarily left to find Bingyu Luanfeng, and left a message for the lotus avatar: if Lu Xia Tian decided to sneak into the fairy world through the Jietian Stone, he should inform them at any time.
This Heavenly Demon Monarch was considered a shrewd person, realizing that with Lu XiaTian's current strength, he would most likely experience the tribulation thunder ascension to the Immortal Realm. After all, who would risk their life by smuggling when they could ascend through normal means The Heavenly Demon Monarch left, probably not holding much hope for this either. Lu XiaTian shook his head; the Heavenly Demon Monarch was unaware of his true situation. Since he had now cultivated into the True Dragon Body, according to Yuanshi Jianmo's words, he could no longer ascend to the Immortal Realm through normal channels.
“Fine, since the Heavenly Demon Lord is temporarily away, I’ll let him be. When I decide to leave, I’ll notify him separately.” Lu Xia Tian pondered for a moment and decided to put the matter of the Heavenly Demon Lord aside for now. There was still plenty of time before he set off to sneak into the Immortal Realm. Before leaving, Lu Xia Tian planned to try again through the Sky-Piercing Cauldron to see if there was a way back to the Lingxu Secret Realm.
Since learning about the Dragon Tears from Yuanshi Jianmo, the figure of Luo Qing, who had been dormant deep within Lu Xia Tian's heart for so long, had become a constant presence in his mind. No matter how slim the possibility, Lu Xia Tian was determined to return and verify it himself.
Besides Lu Qing, Lu Xia Tian also planned to visit Su Qing and Luo Qian who was sleeping in the ghost coffin. He hoped to restore Su Qing to her original state or wake Luo Qian from his slumber. As a human cultivator, Lu Xia Tian didn't have a good way to do this, but other Mahayana ghost cultivators might.
No matter what, if we can catch a few Mahayana ghost cultivators, it'll be enough to wake Luo Qian from his slumber. As for Su Qing, the situation is much more complicated, and even Lu Xia Tian isn't entirely confident. But regardless of whether it works or not, he has to try.
As soon as he thought of this, Lu Xia Tian went out again and headed straight for the Western Ghost Clan's territory. The recovery of the Town Demon Tower, Wu Xiang Xuanhuo, and Fang Tian Hua Ji was not a one-day feat, but Lu Xia Tian could still use some divine powers such as the Brahma Heaven Fire and Mirror Image. With Lu Xia Tian's current abundant mana, even without using the power of the Dragon Yuan, ordinary Mahayana ghost clans were still far from his opponents.
For Lu XiaTian, dealing with ordinary Mahayana cultivators was essentially the same whether he used one method or several. He didn't even bring his Lotus avatar this time.
As he journeyed into the West Ghost Clan's territory, a chilling wind blew everywhere. This was actually the second time Lu Xia Tian had come to this place. He first came here centuries ago to find spatial fluctuations similar to those that trapped Xiang Qingcheng and Dongfang Yi. In his quest to free them, Lu Xia Tian had explored almost every corner of this world, including the gathering place of the Ghost Clan.
Bones lay scattered everywhere, and ghostly figures drifted through the air. This was the land of the Xiyou Ghost Clan, perpetually shrouded in darkness, where sunlight never reached. A constant howling wind filled the ears. Even Lu Xiaoteng, a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, felt stifled by this place. He wouldn't come here unless absolutely necessary.
To avoid trouble, Lu Xia Tian wore a ghost-qi battle cloak, causing him to also emanate a faint ghostly aura. He crossed various ghost realms along the way and was not disturbed much. When he arrived at a ghost ridge surrounded by nine pools, the lone graves and wild ghosts that were originally scattered everywhere became extremely organized. The ghost soldiers and ghost attendants here were arranged in an orderly manner, with patrol squads visible everywhere. Even Lu Xia Tian had sensed many powerful ghost clan masters of the Heding realm surrounding the area.

In the distance, several gigantic bone ships were filled with ghostly soldiers and generals. Lu Xia Tian looked up, and they seemed to emanate a considerable amount of spiritual energy.

"Blood food" Lu Xia Tian's face held a hint of playful amusement. There were quite a few strange and unorthodox cultivation methods in the world. Both humans, demons, and even monsters had their share that required blood-drinking. Sometimes it wasn't even for cultivation, just an occasional snack. Human cultivators often hunted demons, and some sinister artifacts were used on ghosts or demons to obtain materials. Although there hadn't been a large-scale war between the races for a long time, the hunting between them had never stopped.
From the white bone giant ship, soon some human or demon cultivator were imprisoned with bone shackles and transported down.
Lu Xia Tian shook his head, his figure flickering as he slowly flew towards a towering ghost temple across the way.
"Who dares to trespass in the Scorpion Cloud Hall!" Several furious roars rang out, Lu Xia Tian's speed wasn't fast, so that many merged ghost creatures blocked his way first.
What was strange about these fused spirits was that although they had already positioned themselves in front, ready to strike, for some reason, the other party simply drifted through the air like a phantom, and somehow ended up behind them.s avatar. But once too many forces were dispatched, it would inevitably lead to a significant reduction in the strength surrounding Lu Xiaoteng. If Lu Xiaoteng escaped because of this, the consequence...
